Finite Element Analysis and Parametric Study of Spudcan Footing Geometries Penetrating Clay Near Existing Footprints

Most existing research on the stability of spudcans during reinstallation nearing footprints is based on centrifuge tests and theoretical analyses. In this study, the reinstallation of the flat base footing, fusimform spudcan footing and skirted footing near existing footprints are simulated using t...
